c++ - strcmp参数为char**,也能正常运行？

Question

strcmp 函数库中的声明：

int __cdecl strcmp (
        const char * src,
        const char * dst
        )

#include<string.h>
#include<stdio.h>
 
int main( void )
{
      char *s1 = "abcdkkkd";
      char *s2 = "oefjeofjefo";
  
      printf( "%d", strcmp( &s1, &s2 ) );
  
      return 0;
}

程序为什么会正常运行？

Answer 1

int strcmp( const char *lhs, const char *rhs );
Function declaration, c99 is slightly different from c11, but it does not affect it.

What is passed in is a pointer. Even if a string variable is passed in, it is still an address.

compares the strings starting from the pointer address to the null character

Answer 2

I tried it on vs2015 and got an error: "The actual parameter of type char* is incompatible with the formal parameter of type const char"

Answer 3

I failed to compile. Tip error: cannot convert 'const char**' to 'const char*' for argument '1' to 'int strcmp(const char*, const char*)'. But you, the poster, the parameter passed in is not the address of that string! What you are passing in is the address of the variable. s1 and &s1 are different!

Answer 4

The Gcc compilation result is as follows:
strcmp.c:9:5: warning: passing argument 1 of 'strcmp' from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
You only passed the compilation because it was passed in All are addresses, so only a warning is reported, but the actual running result is still wrong.
